Ok but which is a better way to win a dick-measuring contest, as pretty much every single naval arms race in human history has been: Big, flashy and overly cost-inefficient ships you can make giant propaganda of, or something useful?

Factbook completion will occur when hell freezes over and this nation is basically what happens at 3 AM when I overdose on Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Game of Thrones. Trans rights or you're getting kneecapped.
Center-right largely-absolute monarchy populated by the majority-pagan descendants of a mix of Vikings, Iron Age German rednecks and the odd shipwreck survivor coming into its own on the world stage during the final stages of a 32-year watershed moment under the watchful eye of an emperor who was never supposed to be one. Strict MT, 2021 though lore posts are generally asynchronous. Brettain is a catchall demonym, flag waifu by Polish Prussian Commonwealth, NS stats not canon.

Navies really get neglected on NS :(

This is me but I avoid due to less knowledge of how modern naval combat works vs modern ground or aerial combat. All I know of modern naval combat is "ships and aircraft lob missiles at each other while ships attempt to shoot down missiles with CIWS." I might fill in the navy section of my military factbook, which currently only describes the naval infantry, one day.

boring, just bring MT into FT and larp out your wildest fulda gap fantasies, but with lasers and railguns.
"Furthermore, I submit that Carthage NSG must be destroyed."
-Marcus Porcius Cato


A traumatized, but recovering, MT-PMT constitutional monarchy consisting of a personal union of Prussia and Poland. A land of rampant gun ownership, governmental schizophrenia, militias with enough heavy weapons to turn an armored division into a badly-shaken battalion of light infantry, and terrified USAF personnel counting down the days until they rotate back home.

Weaponization rate(14 weapons per person) and crime rate(1.77 crimes per hour) both canon. Cry about it.

I can't fucking take it. I see an image of a random sphere posted and then I see it, I fucking see it. "Oh that looks kinda like the eyeroll smilie" it started as. That's funny, that's a cool reference. But I kept going, I'd see a bottle cap that looked like eyeroll, I'd see an animated bouncy ball that looked like eyeroll, I'd see a candle that looked like eyeroll. And every time I'd burst into an insane, breath deprived laugh staring at the image as the word :roll: ran through my head. It's torment, psychological torture, I am being conditioned to laugh maniacly any time I see a pair of dots on a yellow circle. I can't fucking live like this... I can't I can't I can't I can't I can't! And don't get me fucking started on the words! I'll never hear the word "sarcasm" again without thinking of :roll:. Someone does something stupid and I can't say anything other than ":roll:." I could watch a man murder everyone I love and all I would be able to say is ":roll: :roll: :roll:" and laugh like a fucking insane person. And the word "eye" is ruined. The phrase "eye roll" is ruined. I can't live anymore. Eyeroll has destroyed my fucking life. I want to roll myself out of this plane of existence. MAKE IT STOP!

One common NS Cliche is as follows: the undeclared alternate. A nation that is an alt, and is very clearly an alt, and many people put forward often accurate suspicions towards what exactly it is an alt of, but if is never officially confirmed as an alt until directly called out on it and sometimes not even then.

>150km long ship

boring and impractical, send a swarm of 10 million space drones instead to bomb everything 8)

Decepticon Military and the Decepticon Raider Front say "hi!"

We also say, why use non-sapient drones whose patterns can be figured out, when you can use a billion sapient, space-worthy, transforming war robots with energy blasters instead?

The Troas Sector wrote:Another sub-cliche are space nations with no water navies even if they are essential to protect the waterways between regions from even basic pirates or criminals.

1. Victorious Decepticons' home world has no bodies of water on the surface. Only a few underground reservoirs.

2. On other planets, it's easier to just fly by and strafe anything on the water with energy-blaster fire. Some of us can even swim if it's actually needed. Sea-ships are way too limited in their capabilities. They don't even transform!

2a. Who cares about the water anyway? It's pretty irrelevant when we fly in from space and just go wherever we want from there. A defending planet could have a huge sea navy, and it'd be about as useful against us as a bedsheet in a hurricane. We typically just ignore defending navies altogether, since they're so easy to stay out of range of. If they're too pesty, see Main Point #2: We'll fly over and blast 'em.

3. In any case, WE'RE the pirates. What do you think we're doing on these watery worlds, anyway? If we haven't taken over, we're there to raid the place. If we HAVE taken over, we're there to raid it in a more orderly fashion. But we're always there to raid it. Biological worlds are only worth our attention if they have some resources worth taking and/or some slaves that we can press into service doing the labor involved.
